Joe Kubert, one of the most influential storytellers in comics history,
tells the harrowing, true story of a detachment of Special Forces
soldiers on a simple recon mission into the village of Dong Xoai,
Vietnam, that turned suddenly deadly.

DONG XOAI, VIETNAM 1965 has a unique perspective, since Kubert based

of deployment and build-up that led to the deadly encounter for these
young American G.I.s.

For decades, Joe Kubert has shown readers the true face of war – all
the suffering, horror, loss and heroism of our fighting forces. With
DONG XAOI, he goes a step beyond to tell a gut-wrenching tale of
sacrifice that will linger long after you are done reading.

Dream. Award-winning writer David Lapham (YOUNG LIARS, STRAY BULLETS)
